An order transferring the cases now
pending in the district court of Wash

and Sarah McNeal, for SubOrnatiOn

another to commit perjury, was filed by
Judge Mcclure yesterday, which deSig-

Judge J. c. Nethaway, who has been

HELLO'S YELL.
He WhOops Up Watertown Where
the Boys Have Made Money.

Business in WatertOwn. OAK, is
booming, and buildings of all kinds are
going up all over the town. 1t now
looks as though the large number of
commercial travellers who year or two
ago invested in town lots had made
good hit. For long time several of
these investors, prominent among whom
was Ma" Hegard. have predicted that
WATERFOWL would be the leading city in
Central Dakota, and now with the best
opera house in the territory, two fine
hotels and another building, it looks as
though their predictions would be real
lied. 1t is now only second to Aber-
deem in popularity with the boys, and if
no mistake is made in getting a land
lord for the new hotel, it bids fair to
OutStrIp Aberdeen as headquarters for
the commercial travellers.
There seems to be a general feeling
that the syndicate could not do better
than to obtain the services of the we'll
known and popular Charlie Lightner,
formerly proprietor of the Central
house. Charlie is well known, and
while he had the worst building lm-
aginable. yet the old Central was very
popular among the commercial tray
elers. HELLO.
